In a small bowl, whisk together the mustard, vinegar, and oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Place salad greens in a large bowl. Top with pears and Gouda. Pour dressing over the top and gently toss. Sprinkle with walnuts and raisins. Makes 12 servings.

Process oats in a food processor until ground, then add baking powder and salt; process again. Add honey and milk, and process until smooth. Pour batter onto two parchment-lined 11″ x 17″ jelly roll pans; spread evenly. With racks in the top half of the oven, bake at 375 degrees in a convection oven for seven minutes (8 minutes in a regular oven). Use a pizza cutter to cut crackers. Bake for 10 more minutes (13 minutes in a regular oven), until crackers are golden brown.

Stir together the oats, coconut, and almonds in a large bowl. Warm the coconut oil in a saucepan over medium heat, then add remaining ingredients and stir until blended. Pour over the oat mixture and combine. Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper. Spread the granola evenly on the trays. Bake at 340 degrees for 15-18 minutes, or until golden, stirring every several minutes. When cool, sprinkle with chocolate chips if desired.

Melt the chocolate with the oil in a medium stainless steel bowl set directly in a wide skillet of barely simmering water. Stir frequently until the mixture is melted. Stir in salt, sugar, and vanilla. Let it cool. Stir in eggs. Add the almond and rice flour. Add nuts, if desired. Pour batter into a parchment lined 8×8″ pan and spread evenly. Bake at 325 degrees in the lower third of the oven for 20-25 minutes (till toothpick inserted in the center comes out moist but clean).

Place potato chunks in water and bring to a boil. Simmer for 12 minutes, then drain. Meanwhile, whisk oil, vinegar, mustard, and seasonings in a small bowl. Set aside. Grill the potatoes (placing onions on top) over medium heat for 8 minutes, turning once. Transfer to a large bowl. Drizzle oil mixture over potato mixture and toss to coat. Serve warm, at room temperature, or cold.
